Bellator 54, Middleweight Semifinals Earn 185,000 Viewers on MTV2

Sherdog.com confirmed the viewership figure with an industry source
on Tuesday, who also revealed that the event’s immediate replay on
the cable network netted an additional 115,000 observers.

The viewership numbers represent a significant increase from the
Oct. 8
Bellator 53 telecast, which drew a series-low 103,000 viewers
with its live broadcast.

Unlike the previous week, during which Bellator went head-to-head
with UFC
136, Bellator 54 was not opposed by a UFC event on Saturday.
Featuring the 185-pound tournament semifinals, the event emanated
from Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J.
